Hi, I'm Dolly Parton and today I'll be doing the Wired Auto-complete interview.
0:08
I don't Google myself because I pretty much know what I'm up to and if I don't know, all I gotta do is pick up a National Enquirer magazine.
0:08
Yeah, right.
0:08
Now let's see what the internet is asking.
0:08
First question is, is Dolly Parton a soprano?
0:08
You mean mafia?
0:08
No, but if you talk about my voice, I would say I'm a soprano, that means very high, and I'm a very high singer.
0:34
The next question is, is Dolly Parton country music?
0:41
Well, absolutely.
0:41
I'm a country girl and I started out in country music.
0:44
That's my favorite, of course.
0:46
I like to think that I can do all sorts of music now.
0:50
I've been accepted all over the world, I've had several pop records and all sorts of styles, but I'm a country girl, so yes, I'm country music, no doubt.
1:00
Next question is, Dolly Parton godmother to Miley Cyrus?
1:05
Well, everybody knows that.
1:05
I actually say I'm the fairy godmother of Miley Cyrus.
1:10
Is Dolly Parton still magnolia?
1:13
I think I'm a still magnolia, strong as steel, my faith and pride, like so many good strong women.
1:22
I really relate to that as a matter of fact.
1:25
I wrote a song called "Eagle When She Flies" for that movie.
1:28
They didn't use it, but it has lines like, "Gentle as the sweet magnolia, strong as steel, her faith and pride, she's an everlasting shoulder, she's the leaning post of life." and I'd like to think that's who I am, so I am definitely a still magnolia.
1:46
The next question is, Dolly Parton married?
1:49
Well, yes, I am married.
1:49
I have been married for 54 years this year, 2020, and I have been with my husband for 56 years.
1:58
We dated for two years before we married, so we've been together most of our lives and we're still happy, can you believe that?
2:07
Next question is, who Dolly Parton?
2:10
Well, I don't know, Dolly Parton's a whole lot of things.
2:17
I'd like to think that I'm a good friend, a good daughter, a good aunt, a good sister, and I love my fans, so I'm just all kinds of things.
2:13
I'm a girl of many colors.
2:30
Who does Dolly Parton look like?
2:30
Well, a clown.
2:35
Well, actually, I patterned my look after what they called the town tramp in my hometown when I was a little girl.
2:39
This woman that used to walk the streets had all this makeup and hair, high-heeled shoes, and I thought she was so beautiful and everybody used to say, oh, she ain't nothing but trash.
2:48
And I used to say, well, that's what I'm going to be when I grow up, trash, and that's kind of how I look, but I like to think I'm a little more than that.
2:59
Question, who did Dolly Parton write songs for?
3:03
Well, I always write songs for everybody.
3:07
I know a lot of people out there have all these feelings and they're not as lucky as me to be able to have the gift of rhyme or to be able to sing songs and write songs, so I write for myself, but I write for you as well.
3:18
Moving on to the next search, which is what Dolly Parton, what is Dolly Parton up to?
3:29
Well, I'm up to my neck in work right now.
3:34
I've got a new Christmas album called "A Holly Dolly Christmas" and it's starring all sorts of great singers and great people like Jimmy Fallon, Michael Bublé, Miley Cyrus, Willie Nelson, Billy Ray Cyrus, my brother Randy, Rhonda Vincent, Lord, I just got all kinds of people on this album and I hope you're going to enjoy that too.
3:54
Next question, what is Dolly Parton's favorite color?
3:58
Well, you know what, my favorite color is a no color, it's white.
4:01
I love to wear white when I'm performing on stage, it just makes me feel like all light and airy, so it's a no color, but I do love all colors.
4:12
What is Dolly Parton's favorite food?
4:16
Well, that's easy, potatoes.
4:16
Every diet I've ever fell off of, it's been because of a potato, either french fries or mashed potatoes or baked potatoes, potato, potato, potato, I never met a spud I didn't like.
4:28
What is Dolly Parton's hair color?
4:32
Black and white.
4:36
Actually, my little nephew said that about my sister Stella.
4:41
He was in school and the teacher was asking the different children, what color is your mama's hair, when some say brown or red, and my little nephew said black and white, and we got such a kick out of that because my sister Stella, like me, even though her hair is not black, we do have her hair blonde, so it looks very dark at the roots, but I'm actually a dirty blonde, I just keep it bleached.
4:57
I started bleaching it early, but I was born white-headed, I was kind of a cotton top when I was little.
5:04
What was Dolly Parton's first song?
5:09
Well, the first song actually was before I started writing, it's before I could write it down.
5:14
I was about five years old, I had a little cob doll that Mama made me and I named her Tiny Tasseltop because she had corn tassels for hair, so I wrote a little song, "Little Tiny Tasseltop, I love you an awful lot, hope you never go away, I want you to stay."
5:14
But I started writing songs when I was young and my first record was called "Puppy Love" when I was 10 years old.
5:14
Next search is, can Dolly Parton, can Dolly Parton cook?
5:44
And you better believe it, I'm a really, really good cook.
5:48
I'm not a gourmet cook, my food is not pretty, but it's good.
5:52
I cook like my mom, my grandmas, and my aunts.
5:56
I'm still one of those people that really can cook like the old days, that soul food cooking and that's kind of what I like best.
6:07
I can't eat it all the time anymore because it does have a lot of calories in it, but yes, I love to cook and yes, I can cook.
6:07
Can Dolly Parton still sing?
6:07
Lord, I hope so, I've got a new album out, singing every day.
6:07
Actually, I try to sing all the time and they say if you keep your pipes all cleaned out, you can always sing and I try to always stay busy, so if I ever could sing, I still can.
6:07
Can Dolly Parton yodel?
6:07
I guess I can, literally, everybody can do that one, right?
6:07
Actually, I kind of have a form of a country yodel that I do like incorporated in different songs like a song I had out years ago called "Mule Skinner Blues" and I kind of yodel at the ends of some of the songs.
6:51
I'm not a true yodeler like that kind of sound where they really do that from the Swiss Alps, not that kind of yodeler, but I can yodel.
7:02
Next search is, does Dolly Parton, does Dolly Parton do concerts?
7:02
Well, I have been doing concerts all of my life for the most part and I have not toured for the last couple of years, of course nobody's touring right now, but I do love to be in concert because I love that feeling I get from my audience, that energy and that love, we kind of swap off to one another and I have to say, although I have not been in concert lately, I really miss it and can't wait to get back to where I can actually have some interaction with my fans.
7:02
Does Dolly Parton drink coffee?
7:02
Yes, I do and I drink tea as well, but I'm one of those people I like to get up in the morning, tumble out of bed and stumble to the kitchen, pour myself a cup of ambition and usually that ambition is a cup of coffee.
7:50
I'm good with a cup and a half of coffee every morning, after that I'm ready for the day.
7:54
Does Dolly Parton write her own music?
7:58
Well, I write the biggest part of it.
8:01
I do record outside songs and I really love other people's music, but I do love to write, so I write a big part of it.
8:10
Does Dolly Parton have a new album?
8:10
Well, yes, I do, it's a Christmas album, it's called "A Holly Dolly Christmas."
8:18
What else, how corny is that, right or cute?
8:21
I thought, anyway, I've always loved the song "A Holly Jolly Christmas" and I thought, well, I'm doing a Christmas album, I need a good clever title and I thought that was just perfectly appropriate.
8:33
Well, thank you Internet for all those questions.
8:35
I hope maybe you learned something and I hope I answered them properly for you.
8:40
If not, we'll do it again sometime and I'll fix it.
